Has anyone noticed his practice swings before every shot. Why does he come WAY over the top on his practice swings?

I believe he is trying to get the feeling of swinging left after impact. Is that right?

That'd be my guess.

A lot of guys actually do this...Just a feeling they like to have before addressing the ball.

Tom Watson describes doing this in his DVD.  He got it from Corey Pavin as a way to balance his real swing and not go off plane.

a lot of people, myself included, sometimes drop the club too far inside.  So taking practice swings doing the opposite of your fault is a way to help alleviate this problem.
